Reinstall - is supposed to install whichever is shown as current (ie on
the left side of the choose screen. Didn't do that huh, hmmm. I only
tried reinstall when the current version was the installed version and
then I reinstalled. I didn't try it with (I know - test all
possibilities) the scenario where the installed version was the previous
version and I had the current downloaded and then selected reinstall to
reinstall the previous.
I'll have to take a look or if someone else wants a shot - have at it - I
seem to screw up more than I fix trying to learn this stuff. :-(
